Santa Makes a Geek Happy!

All I can say is, "WOW"! I guess I was a good boy this year. Plenty of geek goodness to go around.

My video game collection grew once again with the Atari Flashback 2, and two games for the Xbox: Tecmo Classic Arcade and Lego Star Wars. Three geek things rolled into one: Lego, Star Wars and Xbox! Ahhhh, bliss!

My iPod got more accessories with a radio with a built-in dock and a carry case set (one case for accessories . . . I always lose my USB cable). I also received a few books: MacOSX Tiger in a Nutshell, Halo 2 Hacks, J.R.R. Tolkien Art Collection and the Complete Darwin Awards Set. I also got the Millennium Falcon Lego set (more geek goodness)!

The car got a few goodies as well, like a Bazooka subwoofer and a wind deflector for the sunroof. Guess the H-3 will be put off for a little while.

Ellen got a few more Thomas Kinkade pieces, including a nice three-piece "Sea of Tranquility" set and a modular calendar. She also got a few DVDs: Sex and the City S6P2, The Warriors, Yanks and Moonlighting.

We had all the parents over for Christmas dinner which consisted of a delicious rib roast, asparagus, peas-n-carrots, mashed potatoes and salad. That only leave pumkin pie and cheese cake for desert! Ellen really did a nice job with dinner!
